[talk-ph] Bing Maps has an updated satellite image of Metro Manila?

[maning sambale]

Really awesome given the fact that the first announcement was barely 3
months.  I update the list and outline here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Philippines/High-resolution_imagery#Bing_Imagery

Please add more info.

Question? I noticed that the additional imagery overlapped with the
previous ones, see my initial outline for eastern Laguna:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/96022347

Do I just merge this to the other imagery outline?
